The second match of the Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) 2023 will see Barbados Royals take on Trinbago Knight Riders at the Kensington Oval cricket ground on September 2. Barbados Royals are coming from a win against Guyana Amazon Warriors in the tournament opener, while Trinbago Knight Riders will be playing their first game.
Gaby Lewis and Laura Harris were the standout performers for the Barbados-based team in their win over Guyana. Lewis top-scored with 47 runs off 35 deliveries, and Harris contributed with a quickfire 30 runs off 12 balls.
Barbados will look to continue the momentum from the first game when they take the field against a Trinbago-based team. Meanwhile, Trinbago Knight Riders would be determined to start their campaign on a good note with many star performers in their team.

Kensington Oval Pitch Report:
The pitch at Kensington Oval offers a fair chance to both batters and bowlers. Batters can enjoy the favourable bounce and pace of the pitch in the later phase of the game. At the same time, spinners can also make the most of the pitch’s gradual nature as the game progresses, while seam bowlers will need to depend on their accuracy since the pitch doesn’t provide much lateral movement.
